The Arizona Cardinals are not done looking at their depth at tackle on the roster. Starting right tackle Marcus Gilbert missed the season opener with a knee injury and has already been ruled out for Week 2.

With uncertainty about Gilbert’s return to the lineup, the Cardinals have added another tackle to the roster.

According to Pro Football Talk, they have signed Jordan Mills to a one-year, $1.25 million contract.

Cardinals sign Jordan Mills to one year, $1.25 million deal per source.

Mills started every game of the last three seasons at tackle for the Buffalo Bills. Drafted in the third round in 2012 by the Chicago Bears, he has played in 87 games and started 82. He was signed by the Miami Dolphins in the offseason and cut before the season began.

Justin Murray started at right tackle on Sunday against the Lions. He previously had appeared in two NFL games and is on his sixth team in four years. He did well considering he really only practiced on Friday with the starters.

The Cardinals will travel for their first road game of the season against the Baltimore Ravens this Sunday. Mills is probably the favorite to start at right tackle this week.

One is that teams will not be able to hold any joint practices during camp.

Arizona Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson was one of three Cardinals to be named to the NFL All-Decade team in April, recognizing the best players from 2010-2019. As he made the Pro Bowl in each of his first eight seasons, it makes sense.

"I cried when I got that because going through that season last year, having the suspension and having to deal with that," he told reporters in a video conference.
